[Closed] ZeroAccess Trojan?

[Miruru]

Right, so I picked up a Trojan by the name of ZeroAccess at some point in the past week or so, and I looked online for answers. The trojan would basically prevent me from gettng on the Internet, so I restored a previous access point to put it off. I did a scan and it picked up two instances of the virus, located on/in desktop.ini. Anyway, I finally took action against it, and downloaded ComboFixer, HitmanPro, and some other cleaner (All three were recommended to a user with the same issue on another forum, mind you.) I ran the comp in safe mode and used these three programs in order, and it seemed to work. I ran McAfee once more, and it said my system was clean. I logged in today and searched for McAfee updates. It finished it, and prompted me to restart. I kept clicking "Restart Later" because I was working on a project and I didn't want to interrupt myself in the middle of it. (I have a one-track mind at times.) Anyway, after a while, I was on the Internet, and the computer suddenly restarts itself with no prompt whatsoever. Upon restarting, I found I was unable to access the Internet. Any time I try connecting to the signal, it says it's unable to connect! I can't seem to turn on the Windows Defender Firewall, and when I look at the McAfee program, it says the firewall is on on the main menu...But when I click on the firewall, it prompts me to turn it on. When I click the Turn On button, it switches on for a second, and immediately switches off. I don't know what to do, and I'm unable to download anything on the computer. I'm currently typing this from a netbook, and I can buy a flash drive tomorrow morning. Please help me as soon as possible? I'd appreciate it a ton.

I apologize for double-posting, I really do, but I forgot to mention the OS I'm running:

Windows 7 64-bit. I didn't see an "Edit Post" button, so this was all I could do. Really sorry >_<

Apologies again. The problem's solved, though. It was McAfee being an *** and blocking the connection somehow. Gonna switch to a better anti-virus tomorrow, but for now, McAfee goes goodbye. -_-
